I find it too hard to win
Back on the ground again
I feel like giving in
But you're my second wind

Don't you ever tire
Facing all my fires
I don't need no one but you right now

So I say
Oh, my friend you're holding out your hand
I take it like an oar from the depth
Hey, lifesaver, I'm drowning in despair
But you're fighting for me right until the end
You pull me back to land and save me once again

You helped me wash away 
The insane mistakes I've made
And I see it in your face
My only source of grace
No I don't take for granted
All the time you've wasted
Making sacrifices for a fool

So I said
Oh, my friend you're holding out your hand
I take it like an oar from the depth
Hey, lifesaver, I'm drowning in despair
But you're fighting for me right until the end
You pull me back to land and save me once again

You lift me higher
You hold the fire 
You make me strong enough to stay

You lift me higher
You hold the fire 
Made up stand tall
But without you I'd fall

Oh, my friend you're holding out your hand
I take it like an oar from the depth
Hey, lifesaver, I'm drowning in despair
But you're fighting for me right until the end
You pull me back to land and save me once again
